This isn't supported at present.  Note that just pointing at
/usr/lib32 results in executables that won't run on FreeBSD/i386.
And, quite apart from the linker issues, 'cc -m32' is using the wrong
include files: All the machine-dependent types are defined in terms of
I32LP64 primitives whilst 'cc -m32' uses ILP32 primitives.

The current suggestion is to perform i386 compiles in a FreeBSD/i386
chroot environment.

Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement
an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour.
